Seed Library
May 2025
Whether you’re an experienced gardener or just starting, the Seed Library has something for everyone. Mix and match your seed packets to create a garden that suits your preferences and tastes. We have various seeds, from artichokes to zucchinis, herbs to wildflowers.
Exciting news – we have expanded our selection to include herbs and wildflowers! Fresh herbs can flavor your dishes, while wildflowers can bring beauty and pollinators to your outdoor space.
We can’t wait to see the fruits of your labor and the beauty that blooms in your garden. Happy gardening!
How It Works
You can select up to three packets and take them to the circulation desk for checkout. Your “checkout” helps us to restock. Remember, quantities are limited, so stop soon to get yours.
Restocking
Throughout the growing season, new packs will be added through generous donations. Check back regularly to see how you can update your garden.

Accepting Donations
If you’d like to contribute to the seed library, there are a couple of ways you can help. You can donate gift cards to the library to purchase more seeds or drop off extra unopened seed packets you may have left over from your previous gardening endeavors.
History
PCL established the Seed Library in 2024 with a starter donation from Sow Right Seeds. Burpee restocked it with seed packets of plants local to our area.
Partners
Thank you to Burpee Seeds’ donations, keeping this initiative thriving for 2025.
